New View, Familiar Feelings
Brianna V.
Texas
"Every where we move, we see different views, but the feelings we have are always the same: excitement, anxiety, sadness, hopefulness, and more"

Patchwork Quilt
Miah S.
Virginia

Shifting Pieces
Ellie C.
England
""Shifting Pieces" explores the emotional fragmentation that comes with moving constantly. Each "piece" of the portrait represents the different parts of ourselves that are connected to all of the places we have lived; different but still stitched together to make us who we are."

Constant Change
Imogene S.
Florida
"Like the seasons, change is the one of the true constants in a military teen's life. It is a paradox in that it's predictable yet always new."

Army Class
Jason C.
Virginia
"As the new school year arrives with a variety of new electives open for freshman. Thus I decided to join JROTC so I can learn general knowledge about the military (and for personal reasons)! As of now, nothings too complicated thanks to the older people who taken the class multiple times and it’s pretty fun! However, I’m still lost—but hey, everybody gets lost in a new environment and it’s totally fine!"

Window Chicken
Rowan M.
Guam
"There are a huge number of wild chickens in Guam, including on the base. There's one that lives near our house and has actually jumped up to my window from the outside; I tried to capture the obnoxious rooster and the view behind it in this piece."

Virtual
Zoe B.
Hawaii
"It always hurts when you move and suddenly the only way you can see your friends is through a screen. Everyone says it’s great that we have technology that connects us, but it’s not the same. It’s never the same."

Where R U From?
Imogene S.
Florida
"The life of a military child is unpredictable. Never knowing what’s coming next is scary and can cause anxiety and almost a feeling like falling, with no control."

All Dressed Up
Ellie C.
Ghana
"This is a watercolor portrait of a photo I took of a young girl at a festival I was attending at my post in Accra, Ghana. Living overseas exposes me to fascinating customs and cultures. Although the life of a militeen is tough, it has given me many opportunities to learn about new places and people."

Fireworks of Red, White, and Blue
Jason C.
Virginia
"Every year, every month of July 4th, we celebrate U.S.’s independence. And this year and the next year, and so forth will we continuously celebrate the independence America had assiduously worked for."

Coming Home
Miah S.
Virginia
"I wanted to capture the essence of not only parents coming home from deployment but militeens coming home, wherever home may be. Some may view the art as someone leaving home, but we military teens know that leaving home will open opportunities to find a new home."
